Chapter 536: A High-Risk Disease
Vivian Ferguson stood by the hospital bed, watching the unconscious Angela Reid, secretly wiping the corners of her eyes.
Although the marriage didn’t happen, and she had some prejudice against Camila Walker, her relationship with Angela Reid had always been quite good. After all, they had been close friends for more than 20 years and had sat in a room together, talking about family and life trivialities.
Baron Stuart and Emily Walker entered the hospital room and saw this scene.
Perhaps it was the nature of a man, but Baron Stuart’s expression and heart didn’t change much when he saw this scene.
But Emily Walker was deeply shocked.
She looked up at the hospital bed and saw Angela Reid. If Angela never woke up, would she lose her birth mother in an instant?
She had already lost her parents who loved her the most in the world. Just when she found out that her birth mother might still be alive, would they leave her one by one again?
With this thought, tears rolled down Emily’s cheeks, and Baron Stuart saw everything.
Maybe in her heart, she was already convinced that Angela Reid was her birth mother.
But now, she hadn’t had a chance to prove it, and Angela had fallen into such a situation.
Her heart must be in a lot of pain, right?
Baron Stuart stared at Emily’s tear-streaked face. If there weren’t so many people around, he would have loved to pull her into his arms!
The doctor had just checked Angela again at this time. He stood up, looking not well in his expression.
“Uh, doctor, how is her condition? She was just anemic with a little dizziness before, how come it suddenly became this serious?” Vivian Ferguson asked, her face full of worry.
She had known for 20 years that Angela Reid’s health was not very good, but she never thought it could be this serious.
And what was more, had Baxter Walker and Camila Walker not noticed the situation dragging on this long?
The attending doctor sighed after looking at Angela on the hospital bed, “Madam Foster, Madam Walker’s condition has been dragged on for too long. We must find a suitable bone marrow as soon as possible. She has aplastic anemia, which is a high-risk disease. If it continues to progress, it may turn into acute leukemia, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time.”
Acute leukemia has a mortality rate of over fifty percent worldwide.
“Ah…” Hearing this, Vivian Ferguson’s face turned white from shock.
Although she didn’t understand much about these medical pathologies, she did know a bit about leukemia. This was not a joking matter!
Zachary Stuart, who was standing next to her, let out a heavy sigh as well. The Walker family’s second elder had passed away one after another. He couldn’t just stand by and watch another life slip away.
But, at the moment, he felt somewhat powerless.
“Have you found the compatible bone marrow?” Vivian Ferguson asked anxiously.
“Will my mom die, huh…?” As the doctor explained her mother’s condition once again, Camila Walker couldn’t help but sob.
After hearing her words, the doctor let out a sigh, then tried to say in a softer tone to comfort Camila Walker, “As long as we find the suitable bone marrow for transplantation, Madam’s condition can be completely controlled, and eventually, she will slowly recover.”
Camila Walker was not silly; she naturally understood what the doctor meant, “What if it can’t be found?”
As soon as she said this, everyone’s eyes turned to the doctor, anxious and frightened.
